TouchPath's international response to COVID-19

The move is designed to ensure service continuity for TouchPath customers and minimise the risk of COVID-19 infection for the company’s international support staff who are now working from home supported by mobile communications and VPN. Essential customer site visits are continuing subject to rigorous hygiene precautions.   

“We have taken this step to keep our people safe, protect service standards for TouchPath customers and enable the company’s business continuity” says TouchPath International CEO David Myers. “Our priorities are to protect our people, the company they work for and its customers in the face of the coronavirus threat.”
